History
Shaw Investment Company started with Paul G. Shaw, a WWII vet from Missouri. Paul purchased a cherry farm and moved his wife Mary and his two sons, John and Robert to a farm house in Yuba, Michigan. The cherry farm became the main family business until 1998, when the orchard and house were sold and a large portion of the land, including a vibrant wetlands ecosystem, was donated to The Nature Conservancy in Yuba.
The Campus Plaza property was purchased in 1965 to facilitate a Krogers lease, a Rexsol Drugs and a gas station. The gas station has since closed in the early 80’s and the property was subject to an intense environmental cleanup as part of a statewide environmental initiative. Since then Campus Plaza has become a vibrant community of small businesses in a prime Traverse City location.
